πŸ’‘ The Global patterns and driving factors of non-leaf litter carbon quality πŸ’‘

Results:
1️⃣ only #TotalCarbon and cellulose concentrations significantly varied;
2️⃣ C quality: angiosperms > gymnosperms, herbaceous > woody plants, broadleaved > coniferous trees;
3️⃣ soil properties generally showed strong impacts.

Legumes play critical roles in agroecosystems by modulating nitrogen-fixing microorganisms to enhance #SoilFertility and promote #CropProductivity. Yi-Heng Tao et al. investigated the #CommunityStructure of soil #Nitrogen-fixingMicroorganisms in different soil layers under #Legume and non-legume cultivation .Both #TotalCarbon and #DissolvedOrganicCarbon were identified as key drivers of #Nitrogen-fixingGenes.
